I was also wondering how to paint my dash? I see a lot of people on this website have their's painted. I want to do mine just like the one below, but I don't know how to do it. Do I have to bring it somewhere to be painted? If it's possible to do it myself, that would be perfect, I'm not looking to spend a lot of money.

The link you found that picture in should have told you how to do it. If not, SEARCH the site for painting interior. There's even a How-To somewhere in the Interior section for doing this.

No you don't need to bring it somewhere it's possible and very easy to do it yourself with spray cans. Well all you need is
sand paper a very high grit
primer or paint adhesive
paint colour of your choice
and clear
But you would need a whole day for the project because of drying in between coats
these threads should help you get on your way
